Deep sequencing has revealed thousands of eukaryotic protein-coding genes that defy the central dogma, producing circular noncoding RNAs rather than linear messenger RNAs. For some genes, the ...
Unravelling the complexities of circular RNAs (circRNAs) in cancer biology has positioned scientists on the cusp of revolutionary breakthroughs in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. A new study ...
In a recent study published in Molecular Therapy: Nucleic Acid s, researchers produced artificial circular ribonucleic acid (circRNA) sponges in a permuted intron-exon (PIE) system and showed that ...
New research could make it much simpler to repair disease-causing mutations in RNA without compromising precision or efficiency. The new RNA editing technology holds promise as a gene therapy for ...
Ring-shaped RNAs floating in a person’s bloodstream might mean bad news for their brain. At the 18th Clinical Trials on Alzheimer’s Disease, held December 1–4 in San Diego, Bridget Phillips, a ...
University of Delaware’s Mona Batish is a molecular biologist. She studies circular RNAs formed as a result of so-called molecular mistakes that occur when a strand of RNA — the ribonucleic acid that ...
RNA editing technology holds great promise as a gene therapy for treating genetic diseases. The process requires recruiting adenosine deaminases acting on RNA (ADAR) enzymes using exogenous guide RNAs ...
Unravelling the complexities of circular RNAs (circRNAs) in cancer biology has positioned scientists on the cusp of revolutionary breakthroughs in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. A new Flinders ...
